Anyone playing the newest music album with a video game attached? It follows Sol Baddude as he and various other main characters bullshit their way through 1 on 1 fist fights.
 
I-No still my main but drives me nuts one of her Chemical Romances was removed. Nagoriyuki is sick as fuck.

Song tier list.

19. Smell of the Game (Heard it too much already)
18. The name of Heaven
16. The Disaster of Passion
17. Out of the Box
16. Talking about you
15. Love thy subhuman self
14. Roar of the Spark
13. Play the Hero
12. Trigger
11. Armor-clad Faith
10. Play the Hero
9. Find Your One Way
8. Alone Infection
7. Hellfire
6. What do you fight for?
5. Let Me Carve Your Way
4. Rock Parade
3. Necessary Discrepancy
2. Requiem
1. Crawl

Of course every song is top tier so order doesn't really matter.

As for DLC, I think you can see who'll be in the game in the future if you go to the glossery. Any character that has a full bio with birthdates, hobbies, ect I think will be coming back. Note dead characters like Kliff and ones that'd cause drama like Bridget lack full profiles.

Story mode was pretty good. Was worried the series was getting dangerously close to Blazblue techno jargon bullshit starting with the Xrd games but Strive was a pretty straight forward. When the action scenes kick in, thats when Arc really uh... strives... in showing off their graphical technique (I-No vs. Nagoriyuki).

I expect at least 3 dlc seasons with how well this game sold. The first season already got leaked apparently too although I expect season 2 will be the heavy hitters to get a 2022 sales boost.
 
I'd kill for Zappa to return but I'm not holding my breath.

Crossing fingers my boi Venom is back in season 2 at least. Also hoping for some rival music too for Sol/Ky and the assassins.

Anyways, pretty hooked to Strive, more than the Xrd series. GG is one of the few series from my childhood that hasn't been dragged through the coals yet (I asked for Metal Gear and got Guilty Gear for christmas back in 98 lol.) Got me real into heavy metal and rock since I was an impressionable 10 year old when the series appeared. Always loved the world and lore (recommend the manga Bastard!! which is a heavy metal future fantasy thing that heavily inspired GG) and Daisuke's art and music.

Lobby is kinda ass but managable afterawhile. Just wish I could unlock songs manually instead of depending on a rng.

Been liking Strive a lot too as it stands I think most people will be added the story is not technically over either its just Sols has ended. The first DLC will have 3 newcomers and the rest will be returning (Aria Jack-O and Jam apparently). Season 2 is where I think they drop the big ones like Baiken for the waifufags, Slayer, Venom. If they fix the lobby situation soon this game will be great.

I am really conflicted on Strives story I feel it was a fine ending for Sol but also kind of rushed? I hope to get some side stories later at least like Xrd had.
 
Haven't got it yet, is the reason Faust is a zombie explained in story? I heard he's not very prevalent in it
 
DLC will have some more story stuff down the road to wrap up everyone elses storyline. Kind of like that the storymodes just focus on the chacaters that are important to whats going on rather than trying to shoehorn everyone in.

Faust has gotten weirder because he's trying to reach his old mindset before he was tricked into thinking he killed his patient, but it's causing his psyche to go haywire.

Otherwise you see him walking the earth with Chronos still during credits.

May’s theme is kino even if she’s an absolute gorilla.
 
Personally found the story a bit underwhelming so hopefully the DLC will fix that. Overall I definitely prefer Xrd's OST too; the vocals for a lot of Strive's songs didn't really do it for it me.

Game was pretty fun. I'm surprised I enjoyed it despite how much of a departure it was from previous titles. But Nagoriyuki is a fucking pain in the ass to manage with his blood gauge.
 
Since I'm banned from most normie places I'm just going to post any memes I make here. Feel free to post them to laugh at people for upvoting evil Kiwi Farmer memes.

Chaos fans btfo.

I imagine Chaos will be playable when the next storyline part gets added. Jam will probably be next. Hope my boi Venom returns...

I know a lot of people like to meme on GGs story but I have come to the conclusion that Guilty Gears story is a hell of a lot more tolerable than shit like Blazblue.
It's pretty much a power metal song storyline given anime flare.

This Helloween song always reminded me of the games backstory with making new "gods" and they revolt and probably was an inspiration considering all the Helloween references. Course GG owes a lot to Bastard, future fantasy with a metal theme. Ky Kiske's Order uniform is straight up Lars Metallica's outfit when he resurrects.

Goldlewis is absolutely perfect holy shit
 
This more or less confirms that the leak was true. It's not a bad first season, but unless Asuka's playstyle isn't zoner/ranged mage I doubt any of the other characters will be particularly appealing to me.
